The European Central Bank (ECB) has cut interest rates eight times since June 2024, but announced a pause in monetary policy easing. Mario Centeno, a former governor of Portugal's central bank, emphasized the need for further cuts to reach the 2% inflation target. Centeno said the eurozone economy remains weak and current conditions do not allow a return to balance. Markets now expect a cut in the benchmark interest rate, possibly in 2025.
